Warning:

The cPanel API 2 system is deprecated. We strongly recommend that you use UAPI instead of cPanel API 2.

Description

This function removes a Ruby application.

Warning:
  • We deprecated the legacy Ruby codebase. For more information, read our cPanel Deprecation Plan documentation.
    • To install Ruby and create Ruby web applications, follow the directions in our How to Create Ruby Web Applications documentation.
    • To register and manage Ruby applications, use the functions in UAPI PassengerApps module functions.
Important:

When you disable the Web Server role, the system disables this function.

cPanel Tag System (deprecated)

Warnings:
  • cPanel tags are deprecated. We strongly recommend that you only use the LiveAPI system to call the cPanel APIs. Examples are only present in order to help developers move from the old cPanel tag system to our LiveAPI.
  • cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary in code syntax and in their output.
  • For more information, read our Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage documentation.
